disable camera shutter sound - G1 General

Hey Guys!
Is there a way to disable the nasty camera sound? I searched some time but didn't found anything helpful about it.
Maybe there is a chance to delete the soundfile?
Thanks in advantage...

Do you have root access? If so, you can push an empty file over top the sound file, that's what I did. Otherwise, nope - you are stuck with the sound. I will attach my empty file, here are some instructions (assuming knowledge of ADB).
adb remount
adb push camera_click.ogg /system/media/audio/ui/camera_click.ogg
That should do it.

Tanks a lot! Thats exacly what I need.
I have root access an will try it as soon as I reach my data cable.

When you are in the camera app hit menu>settings and uncheck shutter sound.

Yah, i dun see that either and I'm using what ever camera came with CyanogenMod 3.2 (i think thats what i'm using)..Is it a 3rd party app that has that feature or the stock camera from a different Rom like rogers or ion or something?

Please hook up your phone to DDMS and screen shot so we all can see WTH your doing since we can't.

Thanks again! Just tried it, and: The noise is gone.
So its 100% working..!
edit: There is no way doing this without the datacable and the developer machine, right?

Multi directional screen orientation

Is there anyway to get my phone to recognize all orientations instead of vertical and tilted to the left?
Out of habit (left handed) I turn it to the right, it would be nice if the screen did too
damn top mount charge port
Epic Experience had that cooked in. Still may. Was kinda annoying.
was hoping to find an app for it. I have livehome and it lets me lock out the oreintation on the home screen which I like, but I would just like to be able to type how ever I want in texting
I will have to check out EE, but Im not ready to root yet LOL
I believe you have to make a modification to build.prop. Not sure if it requires a built-in kernel mod though :/.
On froyo its does its on some apps
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
Use root explorer and open build.prop as a text. Its in the system folder.
Change
windowsmgr.support_rotation_270=false
to
windowsmgr.support_rotation_270=true
Restart and your done.
....the false to true thing didnt work. please elaborate.
do I have to be rooted to use root exp?

Try deleting the build.prop.bak file it creates after you modify the build.prop file. See if that works. Oh yeah and click save and exit after you mod the file.

[Q] android root camera access

Hello,
I'm working on a app that can activate the devices camera using root that way there is no preview of the camera and no other apps open. Does anyone know a command to take a picture using runtime.exec and saving it to the root of the sdcard?
thanks,
nathan

Why don't you use the normal API?
I do not think that there is a command for the camera.

Can't you do it in a service? (You need the proper permission in the manifest.)
For sure you cannot do it as root from the terminal.

[Request] Modified TouchWiz camera APK

Anyone have a modified TouchWiz camera APK that allows for flash when low battery? Would be much appreciated thanks!

and shutter sound on/off option? Thanks!

If you are rooted, Shutter sound on/off is easy to do.
Using root explorer (or another explorer that lets you edit system files, go to system/CSC and edit Feature.XML. Look for <CscFeature_Camera_ShutterSoundMenu>True</CscFeature
Change the text from False to True. Save the file and exit the file.
Now, launch the camera app, and go to settings - you should now see the option to turn shutter sound on/off

I believe that Unknownforce's latest ROM, TriForce, includes a modified camera that will do just this. Just pull the APK from the ROM and push to your phone with correct permissions, reboot and profit!
yea a lot of roms have it and you can grab the apk from them
Thanks guys. Which APK do I grab though? Just the camera.APK? Thanks a ton.

In some countries no shutter sound is not avaliable in the app like here in Sweden.
Usually the camera sounds are stored in system/media/audio/ui and there you can delete or rename the ogg file to silence the camera.
But I think the sounds for this camera is incorporated into the camera apk itself, because I can't find them in system.
Tapatalked.
Can someone that has the option to silence the shuttersound post their LGCameraApp.apk & LGCameraApp.odex?
Thanks.

Here in Norway "no shutter sound" is not an option so I use tasker to turn silent mode on when the camera app is in foreground.
Just to add on this one:
As disabling the camera sound in (custom) camera apps didn't work I simply renamed the "camera_click.ogg" file in system/media/audio/ui and now I can enjoy a nice and silent camera
Damn can't delete sounds. Hmm

you need RW permissions. using root explorer is one way to accomplish this.

Yes I know that
The sounds don't appear in this folder. They are baked in the camera app itself.

hmm works for me. thats how i used to do it on my gnex too. however, i'm still trying to figure out how to disable/remove the sound for the focusing. it beeps when you "click to focus".

Did you do this on an LG G2?
I haven't rooted my phone yet, but it seems that other people aren't able to find this file.
Just tried the Mobile Hidden Camera app from the PlayStore.
Seems to be able to take pictures without sound but because it's a "Spy" app, I can't see what is within the frame before I take the picture and can't tell if the camera has finished focusing or not.
This has been the only success I've had and it's definitely far from a permanent solution...
I'll think I'll keep it for the few times where I may have to take a picture without sound.
Use Tasker
Set up a profile that when the camera app is open, silent mode is turned on.
Works nicely.

Sorry what's Tasker?
Do I have to root my phone to use it?
Does your camera sound turn off when you set the phone on silent without Tasker?
Setting my phone on silent/vibrate had no effect and using Camera Mute from Glen on XDA didn't help either since I think the sound file is built into the camera app.

Tasker is only the greatest app available in the play store. Not free, but totally worth the money.
Yes, my phone does NOT make a sound when it is set to silent. If yours does not, then Tasker may not be able to help.
On my D801 renaming camera_click.ogg doesn't do anything.
Setting the phone to silent does nothing too, I had used a custom app designed to emulate the Tasker command that others used. No avail.
This is incredibly annoying! I'm in Canada, there's no shutter law, don't understand why i can't disable it.

Same here lg - d801v11b videotron
i have the d802, even in silent mode the shutter sound is still being played.
i installed a third-party camera app (cameraMX) and guess what? no shutter sound. you can disable it in the app's menu.
same goes for camera zoom fx i can't hear a thing.
didn't try out more camera apps though. they're enough for me.
here is d way to remove camera shutter sound permanently(rooting required)
Hi folks..
Inorder to remove d camera shutter sounds u have to root your phone..
Once rooted install the root explorer app in it..
Then head to / > system > media > audio > ui folder..
Select the music files whose name has "camera" in it and delete them..
Thats all!
Note: I recommend u to take the backup of those files before deleting so that u can restore them whenever u want the sound back..
Hit "thanks" if I have helped you..!!!

Unable to mute camera - Root

I have used this method in the past on both my S3 and S4 and it always worked. I just rooted my Note 3 and tried the same without any success. I do the following:
Navigate to system> media> audio> ui Then I proceed to change the name of the following:
Camera_click.ogg
Camera_focus.ogg
Shutter.ogg
Shutter_multiple.ogg
As I stated above, this has always worked but it's NOT working on the Note 3. I have tried it 3 times already and rebooted each time and nothing. Does anyone know if there is something different with the camera sounds on the Note compared to the S3 and S4?
Thanks.
Yes some sounds are baked into the app itself. To fully mute camera you need to use a root Explorer. Go to system / csc/ open feature. Xml then go to camera_shuttersound menu and change it to true. (it's close to the top, under camera features.)
Then go to camera and you will have a mute option in the settings.
Profit.

There is an app called Enforced Stream Silencer that will disable all of the camera sounds once it's installed.

You need to make sure the system is mounted as RW with whatever file explorer you are using.

It does show rw-rw-rw for permissions after I changed it from rw-r--r--. Not sure what is up.
